[Vivinthewoods 0]

My weight on the morning of my surgery was 201, today I am that 187, so have only lost 14 lbs. I did loose 36 lbs in the 6 months prior to surgery. 2nd fill next week - hoping for better results then.

My surgery was 12/3/09 I was 264, and today I am at 224.

40 lbs !! happy but alot of pain with the fills had to fills first time was 2cc, and now 1cc, and had 3 in so 6cc in a 10cc band.

Dont fill full, and no problems with any foods yet.

But I dont want to go through the pain any more with my fills, he does numb but doesn't help when you get stuck 9-10 times to get the port.

Don't know what to do. Mary :redface:

I was banded Dec 3rd and have lost 21 pounds. I feel like I should have lost more by now. I had my second fill one wk ago and have little restriction. Just wondering how everyone banded in December are doing. Would love to hear from you.

Hi I was banded in Mexico on Decc. 2 and have lost 22 lbs. so far. I had my first fill on Jan. 19 of 2CC in an 11CC band. I feel some restriction and have gotten stuck a few times but that was my own fault for not chewing. I would also like to see more of a weight loss and I am hoping that after my next fill I will hit the sweet spot. I am still very optimistic and I make better food choices [most of the time] due to being banded and trying to help the band do its job. I really do enjoy and feel inspired by this forum which I like to call Band of Brothers This includes you ladies of course. Tell me more about this Easter Challenge.:frown:

I was banded 12/16/09 and have lost 23 pounds so far. I am starting my exercise program today, have not done any yet. So far so good, yes periods screwed up but that is normal after surgery. Need to find more things to eat..eating the same thing over and over. Live alone so do not like to cook for one but need some ideas...

Click directly on the ticker. You should have been required to save a Pin #. It should be four digits. A new window will open and ask for the pin. Once you enter the pin you can change information, and save. I usually go to my signature and resave it there too. Don't know if that's necessary but it works for me. Best wishes and hope this helps!

Thanks! I missed this being posted, lol.
